Recently, Karin Brussaard drafted an overview of the Olympus E-300 used in conjunction with UK-Germany’s UK-D-E300.
Explaining that the housing is compact and therefore “pleasant to work with” (not to mention travel with), Brussard walks readers through the operating buttons, the viewfinder, the lens system, and more. Although Brussaard reckons the small viewfinder and the high price may keep some users away, she concludes that the operating buttons and the compact nature of the housing will appeal to many others.
Want to stick with the manufacturer? Olympus makes its own housing, the PT-E01.
I know one picture on this review which wasn’t shot with the E-300: de first one of the first page and the first one of the gallery: i shot this one with my D200 and the subject is Karin herself… I guess the people at let’s go digital don’t realize that it’s pretty hard to take a picture of yourself while doing UW-photograpphy…
cheers, udo
